In my last post, I talked traveling in general. In this post, I will be introducing a popular holiday destination in USA, Orlando.This is the first stop for this mini virtual tour as I find it interesting finding out what's unique about popular holiday destinations.

Orlando is a city in one of the USA states, Florida. It is the fifth largest city in Florida in terms of population (over 2 million people). A blooming industry in this city is tourism as it is the home to major tourist attractions like Walt Disney, Universal Studio and SeaWorld.

Moving on to climate, Orlando is geared toward a sub-tropical weather as it has hot and rainy as well as dry seasons. Snow is also very rare in this city. Overall, the weather can be likened to Malaysia in exception of being more humid.

And of course, what is a holiday without trying the food. If you are moving around on your own, it might be difficult to know which places to eat at Orlando. Nowadays, the internet simplifies everything as you can easily search up for popular eating destinations.

One restaurant that I found quite interesting is Roy’s. It is a Hawaiian fusion cuisine-cross between Asian and Western food. Well, it does come with a price but has been given excellent reviews by various customers, which makes dining worth the experience. After converting to Malaysian Ringgit, it may cost about 100 Ringgit.

In the next post, we’ll be looking at some of the major tourist attractions found in Florida.

Traveling is indeed costly, but is a lifetime experience and thus saving money is important if enjoying life is your priority. Besides, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Besides, traveling broadens our mind and helps us to deal with life in a more positive way.
